…And I’m back! This will be short, so let’s dive right in.

It’s official. The second draft for THOLAC is underway. I just finished with chapter 3, so I’m roughly 3% of the way done. Of course, this is going by the total number of chapters rather than word count. If by word count, then I’m 4.76% done. Not much difference. And yes, that’s not the first chapter in the book, but I typically write and edit differently than most writers.

I’m notoriously anti main character (MC), but THOLAC is different in this regard. I set out to write this book like my fantasy series, with many characters but no MC. What I ended up with was several minor and supporting characters around the MC. And you know what? I find that I’m okay with that. It’s always good to try something new.

That said, my minor and supporting characters need a lot of work, so that’s what I’m focusing on in the second draft, primarily Amice, Maro’s bounty hunter partner. She’s integral to the plot and to the MC, so I need to make her narration strong. So, I decided to start with her. I’m still struggling to find her unique tone, but it’ll come with time. I’ll try to post more as I write, stir up some traffic to this site, and garner attention on works I already have out. We’ll see.

That’s it for this round, short and sweet. I shall return…
